I STAND FIRM FOR TRUE CONSERVATIVE PHILOSOPHY, AND AGAINST RAPSCALLIONS OF ALL POLITICAL STRIPES.

Tiny and Parrish

Porcupine was there for the great champion games of the 1980's - the celebrations at Boston City Hall, the parades. But Porcupine's favorite players were never Bird, or Ainge, or Havilichek, or Heinsohn or even Russell. After Cousy - Porcupine's favorites were Robert Parrish and Tiny Archibald.

And they're back.

Rajon Rondo is as quick and dangerous as Archibald was in his prime, and Kevin Garnett is Robert Parrish to the life.

Porcupine's youngest was able to get tickets for this game - and he was in nursery school the last time a championship came to Boston. He's there now with his girlfriend, who wasn't alive the last time the Celtics won a banner.

Perhaps with players and coaching like this, we now have a franchise to match the new Boston Garden. Kudos to MVP Pierce, who was a real leader through bad times - but Porcupine will sing - 'Rondo, Rondo, Rondo, RON-doh,....'

I think KG is The Chief without the modifying (mellowing) effect of marijuana. I'm serious. If KG smoked a doob once in a while, he'd probably live about five years longer. The man's intensity is going to make his head explode someday.

About Me

Known as 'Peter Porcupine', I championed traditional rural England and its values against changes wrought by the Industrial Revolution. As the father of modern political commentary, I invented the attack ad...or pamphlet. In my 'Political Register', I was the first to pubish political debates to inform the public about the conduct of politicians. Fleeing England after accusing my Regiment of financial chicanery, I came to America in order to live and write in a free country, until I faced a jail sentence for my pamphlets. While in America, my 'Porcupine's Gazette' was the most widely read political commentary of my day. After returning to England, I served two years in Newgate for writing to protest flogging in the army, and returned to America again. Returning to England shortly before I died, I spent my last years as a Member of Parliament.
